My kids get to hear me sing "You can't always get what you want". Been doin' it for over 10 years and my 10 year old will wrinkle his face in disgust every time he hears the name Mick Jagger because "Mick Jagger doesn't let kids get what they want."

We'll just say "WHIP!" (Daddy calls it whipping although I assure you no whip is involved.) and they completely fold. Coloring on the wall? "WHIP!" - the behavior STOPS cold. It's brilliant.

We just made it fairly easy for his mind to *go there*) So he would often ask "Will I get fired?" and we would say "YES!" and he would knock it off.
